Today I am thankful for change. From an anthropological standpoint we naturally rebel against change, but change is inevitable in our lives & quite necessary. Change brought me and my mom closer together. Change brought Tj & I here to Virginia. Change brought me to a new job that I just know I'm going to love. As I meet new people and am introduced to new things both here and when I travel around the world I constantly change how I think about things and myself as I try to adopt things from those cultures in to who I am. I am so thankful for these changes.
The Bible teaches us about change too. 2 Corinthians 5:17 tells us that anyone who is in Christ is a new creation; the old is passed away and the new has come! Romans 12 also speaks of daily change by renewing your mind. As we grow in our relationships with Christ he changes us, and praise the Lord He does! I am so glad He doesn't leave me as I am but that He loves me enough to bring change in my life.
I hope that I never stop changing to be more like Him.
